Chapter 16: The Pastimes of the Lord in His Childhood and Youth. Text 63

bhavÄnÄ«-Å›abde kahe mahÄdevera gá¹›hiṇī
tÄá¹…ra bhartÄ kahile dvitÄ«ya bhartÄ jÄni

 bhavÄnÄ« Å›abde - by the word bhavÄnÄ«; kahe - is mentioned; mahÄdevera - of Lord Åšiva; gá¹›hiṇī - the wife; tÄá¹…ra - her; bhartÄ - husband; kahile - if we say; dvitÄ«ya - second; bhartÄ - husband; jÄni - we understand.


Text

“The word ‘bhavÄnī’ means ‘the wife of Lord Åšiva.’ But when we mention her husband, one might conclude that she has another husband.
